The peddler was merely telling viewers about a legend. It's one of the best changes the live-action film makes to the story in terms of story. In the 2019 film, a future version of the Genie recalls the story of Aladdin and Jasmine years later to his two children. The original opening of 'Aladdin' contained the lyric ' where they cut off your ear if they don't like your face,' a line which was changed when the film was released on video to the friendlier ' where it's flat and immense and the heat is intense.' The story of Aladdin (played by Mena Massoud) and Jasmine (Naomi Scott) is then told to us by the unnamed peddler.
In the original movie, 'Aladdin' opens on the song 'Arabian Nights' with a peddler riding across the desert on a camel on his way to Agrabah. This version of 'Arabian Nights' is much more family friendly from its original incarnation. Account icon An icon in the shape of a person's head and shoulders.
